TNI Bureau: Senior Congress leader and Leader of Opposition (LoP) in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi has sharply reacted to Supreme Court’s order for the removal of all stray dogs from Delhi-NCR area.
The Apex court on Monday had directed to remove all stray dogs from the Delhi-NCR area within eight weeks and house them in dog shelters.
However, taking to his X handle, Rahul condemned the directive saying that the SC’s directive to remove all stray dogs from Delhi-NCR is a step back from decades of humane, science-backed policy.
